Global Online Job Fair

Migration is an important issue in Armenia. During the past years, migration
has mainly been an outbound process, especially highly qualified professionals
have been searching for job opportunities outside Armenia. It is obvious that
this has a negative impact on the economic development within the country.
As part of the “Mobility Partnership” between Armenia and the EU, a Targeted
Initiative has been initiated by different EU member states which aims at strengthening
Armenia‘s migration management capacities and puts special emphasize on reintegration
activities.

One of the key activities of this project has been the Online Job Fair for Armenians
who are currently working and living abroad. The German Society for International
Cooperation (GIZ) has been responsible for organizing such an online event,
where employers in Armenia can meet job seekers. The GIZ has decided to conduct
this virtual event based on ubivent‘s software platform. Karine Simonyan, who
is working for the GIZ in Yerevan (Armenia) as project manager, emphasizes
the importance of this decision: “We have been the very first to organize such
an online event for Armenia. Going with ubivent has been a natural decision.
Their staff is very experienced in this kind of events. At any point in time
during the project, the ubivent team has been on top of everything. Despite
our role as pioneers in our country, we never had a second of doubt that the
project will be anything but a huge success.”
